Labor’s Hoffa Declares War on the “Sons of Bitches” Tea Party, and Obama Praises Hoffa

Teamster head Jimmy Hoffa declared war with the Tea Party today while warming the stage for President Barack Obama in Detroit, Michigan. As a Labor Day special, he pledged the support of the Unions to Obama, promising that “one thing about working people is, we like a good fight,” and that they “are ready to march” against the Tea Party, which he feels has taken up a charge against workers. Calling the Detroit crowd into battle, he cried, “Let’s take these sons of bitches out and give America back!” It’s hard to imagine that was the lead-up Obama was expecting. Spirited and perhaps inciting, did he outdo himself?
